Nick Kyrgios puts injury, fan heckling him and failed trick shot behind him to book place in quarter-finals of Wimbledon as Australian admits he needs a glass of wine after five-set win

Nick Kyrgios overcame the pain barrier to book his place in the quarter-finals of Wimbledon with a five-set win over American Brandon Nakashima.

The Australian, who's made plenty of headlines at these Championships, went down with a shoulder injury shortly after dropping the first set.

After his medical timeout, Kyrgios fought back to win sets two and three before Nakashima took the fourth round clash to a deciding fifth set.

Some of Kyrgios' old habits crept back in during the fifth as he clashed with the umpire, prompting a fan in Centre Court to yell: "Stop moaning!"

Kyrgios also made a complete hash of a trick shot as he attempted to return the ball through his legs while at the net.

But none of that mattered in the end as he came out on top to win 4-6 6-4 7-6 (7-2) 3-6 6-2.

It was an exhausting encounter for Kyrgios, who hilariously quipped in his post-match interview: "I need a glass of wine for sure tonight. For sure!"

Next up for Kyrgios is Cristian Garin, who got past Australia's Alex de Minaur in five sets on Court Two.

This was a much more subdued display from the fiery Kyrgios, who sealed his place in the second week of SW19 with a win over fourth seed Stefanos Tsitsipas in a very bad-tempered clash.

It's credit to him that he didn't resort to his usual antics (for most of the match at least) as plenty went wrong for him - the shoulder injury putting his ability to even finish the match in doubt.

He shook that off well but Nakashima wasn't willing to let the Kyrgios show roll on without a fight.

It was at the beginning of the fifth set when Kyrgios had a dispute with the chair umpire after being proved dramatically wrong by Hawk Eye when challenging a line call. Kyrgios then appeared to blame the umpire for not warning him against challenging the call.

The failed trick shot proved pretty academic as he broke Nakashima twice before claiming the fifth set 6-2.
